Definitions

  • a network device includes a switch chip and a Central Processing Unit (CPU).
  • the switch chip When sending a packet to the CPU, the switch chip firstly adds a private information header in an Ethernet header of the packet according to a private protocol, and then sends the packet carrying the private information header to the CPU, so that the CPU obtains packet characteristics from the private information header of the packet.
  • Information related to the packet characteristics may include a Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) to which the packet belongs, Quality of Service (QoS) of the packet, interface information of a peripheral interface receiving the packet, and the like.
  • VLAN Virtual Local Area Network
  • QoS Quality of Service
  • WO 9900737 A2 discloses a system and method for updating packet headers using hardware that maintains the high performance of the network element.
  • the system includes an input port process (IPP) that buffers the input packet received and forwards header information to the search engine.
  • the search engine searches a database maintained on the switch element to determine the type of the packet.
  • the type may indicate whether the packet can be routed in hardware.
  • the type may indicate whether the packet supports VLANs.
  • the search engine sends the packet type information to the IPP along with the destination address (DA) to be updated if the packet is to be routed, or a VLAN tag if the packet has been identified to be forwarded to a particular VLAN.
  • the IPP during transmission of the packet to a packet memory selectively replaces the corresponding fields, e.g., DA field or VLAN tag field; the modified packet is stored in the packet memory.
  • control fields containing control field information conveyed to the packet memory by the IPP.
  • An output port process (OPP) reads the modified input packet and the control field information and selectively performs additional modifications to the modified input packet and issue control signals to the output interface (i.e., MAC).
  • the MAC based upon the control signals, replaces the source address field with the address of the MAC and generates a CRC that is appended to the end of the packet.
  • US 2013/0315254 A1 discloses real-time packet transforms to avoid re-transmissions. There exists a need to reduce re-transmission delays in real time feeds (such as video) by sending the packet with sufficient repair/recovery information inside the packet container so the relaying stations and/or the receiving devices can fix errors in transmission by perusing the contents of the packet and the repair information, and modify the packet and then relay it.

  • the CPU 102 at least includes a Media Access Controller (MAC) 102_1 and a buffer 102_2.
  • MAC Media Access Controller
  • the conversion apparatus 103 receives a first packet that is sent by the switch chip 101 through the CPU interface 101_1 and is to be uploaded to the CPU 102, obtains a second packet by migrating a private information header in an Ethernet header of the first packet to a specified position of the first packet, calculates a Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) code of the second packet, obtains a third packet by replacing a CRC code already carried in the second packet with the calculated CRC code, and sends the third packet to the buffer on the CPU for buffering.
  • CRC Cyclic Redundancy Check
  • a packet is usually identified by analyzing an Ethernet header of the packet.
  • the Ethernet header may include a data link layer header (also referred to as a layer-2 header), an IP header (also referred to as a layer-3 header) and a TCP/UDP header (also referred to as a layer-4 header). Based on this, the above specified position may be a position other than the Ethernet header in this example.
  • the above specified position may be, for example, the last N idle bytes in an Ethernet Payload of the packet without affecting original contents of the packet, where N refers to the number of bytes occupied by the private information header.
